SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 516,155,dated March 6,1894. Applicationiled March 27,1893- Serial No. 467.876. (No model.)

To all whom t may concern:

Be it known that I, JAKOB FIscHEL, a subject of the Emperor ofAustria-Hungary, residing at Vienna, in the Province of Austria, in theEmpire of AustriaHungary, have invented certain new andusefulImprovements in Embroidering-Machines, of which the following is aspecification.

This invention relates to an embroidering machine for producingborderings of textile fabrics in such a manner that theembroidering-threads cover a weft or ground led along the edge andconsisting of two or three threads so that a surface-embroidery is produced and in which the two threads employed` for the embroidery are ofequal or unequal thickness, in which latter case the thinnerembroidering thread is the needle thread and lies over the weft orground threads, whereas the thicker thread, the looper thread, coversthe back of the edge, so that thework has the appearance as if it hadbeen embroidered from both sides. In that latter case the weft may bedispensed with so that but one side of the fabric receives a pattern. Ifthe thicker thread is of another color, then a so-called passe-poil isproduced. The embroidery may be produced in a zigzag or any other form.

My improved machine is illustrated in the accompanying drawings, inwhich- Figure 1 is a front-view of the machine.

Fig. 2 illustrates a plan view of the same with removed cover. Fig. 3shows the mounting of the weft-thread bobbins. Fig. 4: is a front viewof the thread-guide for the weft or ground threads. Fig. 5 is a crosssection of the thread carrier for the ground-threads. Figs. 6 and 7illustrate in an enlarged scalein side and plan- View the formation ofthe stitches by means of needle and thread carrying looper with threeweft threads. Figs. 8 and 9 show also in an enlarged scale in similarviews the formation of the stitches by the needle and looper without theapplication of weft or ground threads. Fig. 10 is a verticallongitudinal section of the whole machine. Fig. 1l is ah' underview ofthe same. Fig. 12 is a vertical cross section through the shaft of thecams.

My improved machine has the form of a common embroidering machine(similar to a glove-sewing machine).

It consists of needle d, of a thread carry` arm and engaging into theeccentric groove b2 of the cam b eects the rocking motion of thelooper.y The feeding-di sk c is moved from a peculiar cam disk c uponwhich slides laterally the pin c2 of the shaft c3 (see Figs. 10, 1l and12), the latter carrying a pin or arm c4, which strikes during itsrocking-motion toward the friction clutch c5 embracing the disk c6 onthe feeding-disk shaft. The return motion is prevented by means of thearm c and the spring o8. I am aware that these mechanisms are well knownand I do not claim them, but only their combination with the partsdescribed farther on.

I employ a peculiar thread-guide for the thick weft-or ground-threads,which guide is shown especially in the Figs. 3, 4 and 5 as mentionedabove. The formation of the stitches of the needle and looper is wellknown from other machines of this kind and is illustrated in an enlargedscale in Figs. 6 and 7. The embroidery threads come from the bobbins e fto the needle and to the looper; the weft or ground threads however areled from the bobbins g q2 g3 come from the arm g, through thethread-carrier h to the guide/L and pass through the holes t" i2 is (orthrough open notches to the front side of the fabric), where they arecovered by the loops of the needle -thread caught by the looper b. Theguide c' has 'a longitudinal recess 6 in its bottom edge, through whichrecess the edge of the fabric passes and is thereby guided. Theformation of the loops and the binding of the two embroidering threadsare Well known, so that a more detailed specification is not necessary.

Having now described the nature of my invention, I claim- In a machinefor embroiderin g the edges of IOO fabrics, the combination with ahorizontally reciprocating needle, of two rotating feeding disks mountedhorizontally below the needle, of which disks one can be moved towardand from the other, a thread-carrying looper, mounted to proj eethorizontally over one feeding disk to the edge of the same, which looperis mounted to swing laterally and also to swing up and down, a threadguide fixed on the end of a horizontal arm, said thread guide beinglocated at the point of contact of the two feeding disks and whichthread guide has a series of holes for guiding the weft threadsWitnesses.
